By Staff PPN Reporter

Nimba County Junior Senator Aldophus Dolo has asked his countryman Prince Johnson to wait for another time to contest the presidency the Peoples News has learned.

According to a Star Radio report Senator Dolo observed Prince Johnson could be a good presidential material but needed time to mature politically.

The Nimba County lawmaker told reporters in Liberia that Senator Johnson cannot wish to fix something that has not spoiled.

He disclosed eight of the nine lawmakers from Nimba County are strongly behind President Sirleaf’s second term bid.

Senator Dolo believes the people of Nimba will be ungrateful to Madam Sirleaf if they fail to vote her in for a second term.

The Nimba lawmaker declared he will be one of the campaign managers to ensure the re-election of Madam Sirleaf in the 2011 presidential race.

On Senator Johnson’s refusal to attend the 2010 Nimba celebrations, Senator Dolo said there can be no justifiable reason to stay away when people are coming to your house.

Prince Y Johnson is better known as the man who presided over the torture and assassination of the then Liberian President, Samuel Doe, in September of 1990.

Doe, who was traveling only with his personal staff, was ambushed and captured by members of the Gio Tribe who were loyal to Prince Yormie Johnson. The soldiers took him to Johnson's headquarters in neighboring Caldwell, tortured and killed him

As the Field Marshal, Prince Y. Johnson consumed one Budweiser after another, and had given orders for the former president’s ears to be removed, which was carried out by some of his soldiers, as Samuel Doe sat there not believing the trick fate had done him.

Prince Johnson often said, "The Gun That Liberates Shall Not Rule" it is not clear why his gun should rule at this time.
